Warlock Invasion of Naruto.

Kushina's heart was filled with immense sorrow and fear of the unknown.

She lost her home, finally came to Mito's side, and finally got used to life in Konoha. Now Mito is leaving too.

"Grandma Mito, do I really have to become a Jinchūriki?!" Kushina's face was filled with confusion and anxiety about the future.

Even though she had only been in Konoha for a short time and already knew her fate, she was still afraid.

People fear the tailed beasts and their jinchūriki, let alone her, who is about to become the vessel for the strongest tailed beast, the Nine-Tails.

“You are the only suitable candidate.” Mito gently stroked Kushina’s head. “I don’t have much time left…”

Kushina fell silent, her heart filled with sadness and fear.

Mito gently comforted her, "Kushina, you are a good girl. You should always maintain an optimistic attitude."

Tailed beasts are very cunning; they will exploit your negative emotions and amplify the dark side of your heart.

Being a vessel for a tailed beast is perhaps unfortunate.

But don't let this leave you feeling empty and lost; find love to fill it.

In that case, even if I live as the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki, I can still find happiness..."

“Love…” Kushina looked up at Mito.

"Love is a bond, it is protection... One day, you will need the power of the Nine-Tails for the sake of the one you love. At that time, the Nine-Tails may no longer be a misfortune for you."

"I will work hard."

Kushina threw herself into Mito's arms, finding a sense of security only in that way.

After a long while, Mito looked at Kushina intently, as if trying to memorize her face.

"Child, calm yourself down. Now let the Third Hokage in. The Nine-Tails transfer ritual is about to begin."

With that, Mito clapped her hands, and the barrier that had just been set up in the room opened.

"Hmm~" Kushina bit her lip and reluctantly left the room.

Soon, Hiruzen Sarutobi entered the room.

......

the next day.

A small number of high-ranking officials in Konoha held a funeral for Mito Uzumaki, burying him alongside the First Hokage.

This information should be kept secret for as long as possible.

As for the fact that the new Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is Kushina Uzumaki, only a very few people know this.

As for how many people could guess it, that remains to be seen.

[Chapter 22. Kushina is a Jinchūriki (Third update, please vote)]

The next day, Bai Yu arrived at school early.

But Kushina didn't come; she didn't show up until class started.

Go ask Sakamoto Midorikawa, and he'll tell you that Kushina has taken sick leave.

Bai Yu, of course, did not believe it.

She seemed so energetic yesterday, how could she have gotten sick overnight and taken more than one day off?

After school in the evening, Bai Yu headed straight for the Thousand Hands Clan's territory in the north of the village.

He had just reached the gate outside the clan's territory when a black-robed ninja wearing an animal mask suddenly appeared.

Bai Yu was startled.

He's a Jonin from the Anbu!

Even a regular Chunin wouldn't be this fast.

"Please stop!" The ANBU ninja raised his hand to stop Bai Yu. His voice was gentle, but it was full of unquestionable authority.

Bai Yu felt a chill run down his spine. The other person's gaze made him very uncomfortable, and he felt that something big must be happening. So, he deliberately probed and asked:

"I'm here to see my classmate Kushina."

"I know. Kushina is sick and not here. You should go back!" The ANBU ninja nodded slightly.

"Sorry to bother you." Bai Yu's lips moved slightly, but he didn't ask any extra questions, and judging from the other party's expression, he wouldn't tell him either.

Watching Bai Yu turn and leave, the ANBU ninja vanished in a flash.

......

Twenty days passed quickly, and August arrived.

Kushina still didn't come to school.

During his search for Kushina, Bai Yu was stopped outside the Senju clan's territory.

He went to find Tsunade, who only told him that Kushina was currently in a special care ward on the top floor of Konoha Hospital, and no one was allowed to visit her.

As for what illness it was, Tsunade only told him that Kushina would recover soon.

Final exams are in a few days, and then it's summer vacation.

Bai Yu could only pass the time through cultivation.

......

In the dense forest behind the ninja academy.

shhhhhhhh!

Bai Yu jumped down from the tree trunk, and as his body spun in mid-air, he shot four kunai at targets in four different directions.

As he landed, four kunai simultaneously struck the bullseye of the target.

This was a ninja tool throwing technique he learned from the Uchiha in the next class.

The Uchiha clan's use of ninja tools is unparalleled in Konoha. Besides the skill involved, the most important factor is that some Uchiha geniuses, even without activating the Sharingan, have better dynamic vision than ordinary people. This is the advantage brought by their bloodline.

Therefore, their throwing techniques are often not suitable for ordinary ninjas.

The Uchiha clan wasn't afraid of others learning their throwing techniques, as these techniques could be passed on to outsiders—this was the Uchiha clan's pride.

According to the girl who taught Bai Yu, under normal circumstances, a skilled Uchiha can accurately throw four kunai at the same time, a technique known as the 'Four Throwing Technique'.

After awakening the Sharingan, one can even learn the 'Six Throws Technique'.

Bai Yu remembered that in the first part of the story, Sasuke recalled his brother Uchiha Itachi practicing throwing ninja tools.

Itachi can even use the 'Eight Throws Method'!

He memorized the target's location with just one glance, then jumped down from the tree with his eyes closed, simultaneously throwing eight kunai, hitting the bullseye with pinpoint accuracy.

Four of the targets were positioned at extremely tricky angles, making them impossible to hit with conventional methods.

He can even accurately hit blind spots by making the kunai bounce and change direction in mid-air.

At the beginning of his transmigration, Bai Yu also tried it.

Let alone eight or six throws, Bai Yu initially threw two kunai in two different directions at the same time, but he couldn't hit the bullseye.

It wasn't until he learned [Five Senses Enhancement] that he began to make up for his weakness in ninja tool throwing.

When he cast the spell, his dynamic vision was greatly enhanced.

When it comes to ranged attacks, kunai seem to have average power and are mostly used as a means of auxiliary attack. But if you can be as accurate as Itachi, it's a completely different story.

Ninjas possess formidable offensive capabilities, yet they are still mortal beings. Leaving aside vital organs like the throat, eyes, back of the head, and heart, even a simple injury to the fingers can impair hand seal speed and significantly reduce combat effectiveness.

Bai Yu took off his kunai and was about to continue practicing when a familiar voice came from behind him.

"Bai Yu!"

Turning around, the person who came was none other than Kushina, who had been missing for a long time.

"So strong!"

Even without using any magic, Bai Yu could feel the powerful energy radiation emanating from Kushina.

[Chakra: 51600 "??? (Exceeds the theoretical range)"]

Under the "Eye of Truth," Kushina's chakra data was revealed.

"Hi~"

Bai Yu gasped.

Kushina's chakra has more than doubled!

After more than a year of training, Bai Yu's chakra increased threefold, but this was a three-digit increase.

Kushina had a five-figure chakra level, so for her chakra to double in such a short time was simply outrageous!

What's even more terrifying is that Kushina possesses another chakra, which is far more powerful than her own!

Even the "Eye of Truth" cannot detect it.

As Kushina approached, the powerful radiation emanating from her caused Shiraha to instinctively take a half-step back.

"Bai Yu?" Kushina's eyes flickered slightly. Seeing Bai Yu's retreating movement, most of the excitement in her heart dissipated.

Bai Yu definitely didn't know that she had become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

Could it be because of the ominous chakra emanating from the Nine-Tails?

She should have had complete control, after all, there were multiple powerful seals left by Grandma Mito.

Just as Kushina was stunned, Shiro suddenly rushed up and hugged her tightly, secretly taking a deep breath.

The smell of this energy radiation is so pure!

The surrounding energy particles are more than ten times more active than before!

For wizards, nothing is more attractive than pure radiation that is harmless to the body.

It feels like taking an "energizing potion".
